which made it difficult to choose names for her children because
‘challenging’ students put her off so many potential choices. She now
combines educational consultancy, teaching in HE and blogging as one of
The Write Romantics, with writing both fiction and non-fiction, and
lives so close to the South-East edge of England that she’s very nearly
French.Among a Thousand Stars is her first full-length novel.
